Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

It's true, my Buck 120 just bit me and I bled all over.  Of course, I was using it as a pry bar.  A few years ago a Kershaw Leek stabbed me in my left hand and I met a very nice hand surgeon.   I feel betrayed somehow when something I have an emotional bond with bites me.  Am I crazy or do you other knife people ever feel the same way?

I have been bitten by my knives several times.  The latest was when I was looking at my RR lockback folding hunter.  I had sharpened it a little earlier.  I unintentionally brushed the end of my thumb across the blade, no pressure at all, and it bit me.  One time when I was at SMKW I was looking at a knife on a table.  I cut myself with it.  I looked around to see if anyone saw me.  I then discreetly pulled out my handkerchief and wrapped my finger in it.  And of course there was the time i cut myself with three blades of the same knife at the same time.  That really didn't feel like a love bite!  LOL

i hate when a good friend betrays me like that. Sometimes I get mad, but I usually get over it pretty quickly. Especially when I figure out, it was my own fault.

LOL, I hope it did not bite too hard.  It was reminding you to get a pry bar LOL

Somehow I always feel that it is a love bite when it is a knife I am attached to.  The only time I ever felt betrayed by a love bite was reaching into a case at a show and one got me on the knuckle.  I never did buy that knife
